Today, tragedy has hit home. My daughter and grandson's home burned today. There is not much left inside that isn't burned or water/smoke damaged.

DaMira and friends are sifting through the wreckage to see what is salvageable, but it looks like we will need to start from scratch, from basic needs like clothing and food, to furniture, bedding, ect. There is probably more damage than we can calculate right now and unfortunately there was no renters insurance.

Thankfully everyone is safe, including the pets. Another blessing we have is a strong community of friends that have always been willing to pitch in in times of need. We are in need.

Please help if you are able, and if you can not, please keep my family in your prayers.

The devastation was worse than we thought. Everything is ruined. We are very blessed that many friend have reach out to help us. DaMira being a single mother is going to be a challenge to get housed again, but we have faith that it will happen. Having our sweet pit bull Tia will make things little harder.

One miracle is that Ty's favorite toy, Goofy, survived!

From DaMira: "Today marks a week of my family having no home to go to!! I feel blessed to have all my family and friends by my side but it is hard to accept that you are the person who needs the help. There is nothing like getting off of work and going home to relax ( or yell at your kid to do homework). I miss cleaning my house and all the responsilities that come with it, I miss having a place of my own, I miss being lazy and watching TV on my couch with my family!! I will never take any of that for granted again. (I dont miss doing laundy lol). Home is where the heart is and I can't wait to let my heart settle down!! I know with my amazing support system that we will make it.... I just hope it is sooner than later!!"
